Decodeddies I went to the Wick too. Did you ever get to see the Singer 1911! That gun made me salavate we even got to shoot it.

Here is the rollmark of the the gun we received last year. It now has a BCM 11.5" upper on it.
Absolutely amazing what Uncle Sugar has stashed away in bunkers all over the states. That Rifle looks factory fresh.

I agree. The only thing that threw me was the BCG with grooves for a forward assist.

I really wish that the government would sell these old M16 guns as pre-'86 transferable guns.
If they released a shitload of 'em at the same time I'd be able to score one at a decent price.
We miss you, AC.

I agree! The paperwork on that gun has a big red stamp stating it is not transferable. Bummer! It has a 322,000 serial number!

Could be an AF specific issue/order.

Anniston Al. where AR's go to die. I was unfortunate enough to be given a demonstration on how they are destroyed. The handguards and buttstock are removed and the rest of the rifle is dropped into a hopper, underneath is a machine called "Capt. Crunch" which has a set of cams similar to an automotive cam which the rifle is fed through. At the bottom of the machine is a large trough that collects all the scrap metal, any part bigger than 1" is tossed back in. Truly a disgusting waste of fine firearms and my tax $$$.
A few months after my visit I heard they had fed "Capt.Crunch" some M14's, having a receiver that is a lot tougher than an AR caused some serious damage to the evil Capt. which took many months to repair, further reinforcing my belief in "karma".
